~ Talking Shit When Shit Needs Talking

We’re those Harvard students right? Is America more of a threat to world peace than ISIS?

Some student quotes from the Fox article:

“As a Western civilization, we’re to blame for a lot of the problems that we’re facing now,” one student said during an interview. “I don’t think anyone would argue that we didn’t create the problem of ISIS, ourselves.”

“American imperialism and our protection of oil interests in the Middle East are destabilizing the region and allowing groups like ISIS to gain power,”

And now from the guy doing the interview:

“This video demonstrates the absurdity behind the bash America fad,” Bonham told FoxNews.com. “Unfortunately, too many students think it is intellectual to try and piece together a reason why America is a greater threat than this terrorist organization trying to establish a caliphate through public executions, bombings and beheadings.”

Are we, Western Civilization to blame for a lot of the problems we face today? Well, yes and the bulk of that blame can be laid squarely on the shoulders of America. No one questions whether or not the US funded, armed, and trained Al Qaeda when they were fighting the Soviet Union in Afghanistan.

Osama bin Laden issued a declaration of war against America in which is specified the reasons for his jihad. Did anybody over at Fox News bother to read it? Did Caleb Bonham, editor of Campus Reform who conducted these interviews read it?

The hatred of the US from the likes of bin Laden and these ISIS assholes would stem from their being Muslim. At least that’s how folks like Caleb Bonham would have you believe. Actually, the hatred many Muslims have towards America is directly attributable to the fact that US foreign policy in that region has turned a blind eye to murderous dictators and monarchs so long as they do America’s bidding. Those that don’t do America’s bidding are systematically eliminated, like Saddam and Gaddafi, or the worthless US media labels them the worst thing since Hitler.

Just as Al Quada was a creation of the US, so too is ISIS. Look, there’s no question that ISIS are barbarian’s, but let’s ask that question again.

Who is the bigger threat to world peace? America or ISIS?

Depending on where you look, ISIS has about 30-40 thousand foot soldiers. They have no air force and no navy. ISIS is capable of upsetting that particular region of the world. That’s it. ISIS has no capability to invade Europe and overthrow those governments. It has no capability to invade China and overthrow it. It has no capability to invade and overthrow the US. Therefore, ISIS is a regional threat, not a world threat.

Not only does the US spend vastly more money each year on weapons and war making shit, it uses them. US foreign policy, using US military equipment, enforced sanctions on Iraq that directly led to half a million dead Iraqi children.

The United States, specifically Harry Truman, dropped two nuclear weapons on Japan knowing full well they wanted to surrender. He also used those weapons against the decisions of his military commanders.

The US has supported many vile dictators with cash and weapons. In the 1980’s, the US supported Saddam Hussein and sold him chemical weapons which he then used against Iran. While spewing from one side of our mouth, the wonderousness of democracy, the US sells weapons to governments that actively oppress their own citizens.

Then there is the economic warfare the US wages against the world. The US is currently waging economic warfare against Russia, Iran, Syria, and others. We’re told that these governments are bad and not promoting democracy, but the US has no history of promoting representative style government. Then, there’s the fact that the IRS forces other countries to enforce US tax laws.

When Caleb Bonham and the Fox News crowd speak about world peace, they don’t really think about the words that are coming out of their mouths. Based upon the known facts, the US is far and away the more threatening entity to world peace. Whereas ISIS can affect the region where it is currently fighting, the US has the means to inflict world wide shit storms. And, a government run by sociopaths that don’t give a shit about humanity.

Another great example of how everybody in a military uniform ‘fights for our freedoms’. The Golden Knights skydiving team. Make sure you right wing idiots praise these guys for doing something about freedom and shit. Morons.

After the US government armed and trained ISIL (or ISIS, or IS, or Mad Mohamed Butchers) to fight Syria’s Assad, they’ve since turned and we now find ourselves fighting them. Much the same way the US government created Al Qaeda and ended up fighting them.

Naturally, Republicans are demanding more ground forces and war, WAR, WAR!!!! Because if there’s one thing a Republican knows how to do, it’s sending other people’s children to die for the weapons makers.

Obama doesn’t really want to fight ISIL (and you can see that) so he’s only gonna arm ‘moderates’ in Syria and help Iraq with limited troops and planes. He (Obama) loves dropping bombs from planes, or drones. Doesn’t matter. He gets to be seen as someone who’s doing something while attempting not to get involved. And, if innocent children happen to get blown to hell, well fuck em right? It’s the American way.

Obama’s Secretary of State John Kerry, who is arguably the most retarded fucking SoS in history, went before Congress and told them ‘No Boots On The Ground’… or something.

He stated:

‘arming the moderate opposition in Syria was the “best counterweight” against ISIL and emphasized to lawmakers: “ISIL must be defeated. Period. End of story.’

Um, it was the moderates you already armed that became ISIL you dumb fucking twat. The best counter weight to ISIL is and has always been Assad and the Syrian army. You know, the Assad and his army the US government has been attempting to overthrow.

Another thing comes to mind. The US has been arming and equipping various friendly (as friendly as those duplicitous cunt holes in the ME can be) governments, so why aren’t they doing something? ISIL can make all the empty threats they want against the US, but it seems highly unlikely they’ll come here and do anything of significance. They want to be a state right? In order for them to become a state they need legitimacy and while the shit head Monarch of Saudi Arabia warns Europe and the US about them attacking us, ISIL is threatening Saudi Arabia.

Where do you think the real threat lies? If the US wanted to stop any type of threat against us, the best way to do so would be to close the borders and tighten security there. Now, because the Democrats want all those potential latino votes, there will be none of that.

But still, do you think ISIL poses a direct threat to the US or to Saudi Arabia? Jordan? The UAE? Yeah, me too.

Of course, there’s another piece on this chess board and that’s Iran. They’re already fighting against ISIL, and winning. Why don’t we try growing up a bit, employing some fucking diplomacy and engage with Assad and Iran. After all, they live in that region and are directly threatened by ISIL whereas the US and Europe are not.

Do I expect our ‘leaders’ to act like fucking grown ups? Of course not.

Sean Hannity recently made a staggering pronouncement. And it is staggering considering his love of the US military. He stated:

‘… I don’t know if I can in good conscience recommend that any American sign up for the military…’

I know! He’s a warmonger who believes the US military is second only to Jesus! Wait just a sec and I’ll fill in the rest of the puzzle.

‘If I’m looking at us giving up all of our gains in Iraq, I don’t know if I can in good conscience recommend that any American sign up for the military under this leadership,’

Meaning, Obama gave away all that we as the indispensable nation accomplished in Iraq, so why would any American want to be betrayed like that?

Oh where oh where to begin. Hannity is a fucking douche bag and a chicken hawk coward who never, not once, questioned the lies that the Bush Administration perpetrated upon the world as justification for quite possibly the biggest blundering cluster fuck this nation has ever engaged in. The Iraq war was a criminal act and those that committed the lies should all be in prison for war crimes.

As for all that the US accomplished? Releasing terrorists and suicide bombers on the Iraqi people? The destruction of their infrastructure including schools, power, sewage treatment plants, water treatment plants and hospitals? The theft of some of the oldest archeological artifacts in the world? Horrifying birth defects from dropping radiological waste on them?

Look, joining the US military is for the stupid. It’s for those that have no problem being lied to and being used as cannon fodder for those who lie to advance their own agendas. It doesn’t matter if the asshole in the Oval office is a Republican or a Democrat. Has testicles or a vagina. Is black or white or brown or blue or whatever. They are going to do what they are instructed to do by the other assholes that own this damn country. Every day that passes, more and more innocent human beings are blown to bits because of this damnable war.

Nothing was accomplished in Iraq of any positive note. The puppet regime we allowed the Iraq people to elect is headed by a murderous bastard who set murder squads on his own people because they aren’t the proper sect of Muslim. There is a massive civil and sectarian war going on and the US military is the reason that is happening.

I reject the claim that fascist assholes like Hannity insist it’s the politicians and not the military. They’re just doing their jobs. Bull. Fucking. Shit. They weren’t drafted, they volunteered. They may have seen that it was wrong, but very few had the balls to say no. And shit bag cunts like Hannity called them traitors for it.
